Oprah is a huge influence here, but you won't get the N900 on that show because of the hardware, or benefit of price or locked/unlocked etc.

It WILL get on the show there is an application that this community can write, software/App, (this is open source) that benefits everyone or directly has a link to what Oprah believes in. And of course the software would be FREE for everyone. Then she will get it and show everyone that "look this is what the Maemo community made" and then of course the N900 will be used and will be featured and showed.

so to summarize (because I'm not the best writer sorry) I'm saying that the way to get the phone on Oprah show or any other influential shows with pull in certain demographics (and the mass markets) is to have an app or software because of the community and "free" nature of the OS featured on these shows. Then by default the N900 will be featured.

The tech shows will do their part because they are for techies, but these other shows won't take their time to highlight just because of megapixels or processors.
